Definitely worth the subscription. Looks great. Easy to use. Neat integration with built-in e-reader, text analyser, browser, YouTube viewer and AI tutor, so analysing content and creating flash cards is easy. System for flagging words you already know works well so it’s ideal for intermediate learners as well as beginners. Option to type or speak answers makes sure you really know a word. Spotted issues with a couple of sample sentences but they’re easy to report. Some format problems with text analyser but it’s actively under development. Still worth five stars

I've been passionately learning different languages ​​for over 10 years. Spaced repetition suits me very well, and therefore computer-assisted learning works perfectly for me. I've tried at least 10-15 different apps and programs. This app is the first one I really like for my smartphone. It's actually very simple, but all the others are more like gimmicks. Thanks to the developer!

Exactly what I was looking for, with features I wouldn't have even thought of. Awesome app, great aesthetic and swiping makes it fun 10/10

I'm using it for German and it's perfect! I'm using the free version and I have no problem, the premium features are extra things that you can buy if you want, but if you can't pay them now you'll still be able to learn the flashcards! It doesn't make it useless for people who don't pay and have lots of great additional features for those who pay! Very useful and fun, congratulations to the developers and hope they add more languages in the future😊👏🏻👏🏻💐

This is an excellent app if you are familiar with the language already, this app is not for beginners, since this app is a vocab trainer and not an all around language course, so if you are looking to expand your vocab, I really recommend this app!

I found, for the first time in my life, an app that I really like. I’m already 27 years old.

I really like this style of learning. It's a very easy to use application. Very usable even on the free tier. The app uses AI extensively, but I don't think this is a bad use of it.

Jakub

I've been using this app to extend my Spanish vocabulary and it's really enjoyable. I like the AI generated explanations and how is it easy to add new words you want to practice. Including the ones that appear in examples sententes you find while studying other words.

I have only been using this app for a couple of weeks, but the combination of flash cards which are great for recalling vocabulary and the fact that you can add YouTube videos and pull useful from that, as well as a number of other features, makes it one of the best on the market for me.

I can see my progress every day, love how it adapts to what I forget. Finally a language app that gets me.

Great little app clearly built with an ai first approach which many incumbents don't have. Can get translations on the fly and build up my vocab in a structured and unstructured way by adding words I encounter in my life as I go. Top stuff. Would like to see a wider variety of generated sentences when learning a word so I can see it in slightly different contexts. Additionally, when asking for the llm description of the word I'd like to have it compared to other synonyms in example sentences. So you can get the real context of when one word is used over another.

So I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but I'll admit that what drew me to this app and it's keeping me there is that I like looking at it. It has a retro but modern aesthetic that I really like. And I'm focusing on that aspect for this review because there are many apps that perform the same function -- flashcards to learn vocab. So for me, what makes this one stand out is that I like looking at it haha

Sonjabean

Finally a well developed app that uses spaced repetition system and simple flashcards to help you extending your vocabulary while you are learning a language. Great UX and you also have AI chat to practice with.

I really love using Vocabulary Flashcards Vocabuo. It’s a fantastic app for building vocabulary with flashcards and AI assistance. The interface is clean and easy to use, and it has helped me improve my vocabulary efficiently. Highly recommended

This app has a great potential. It has built-in features such as audio, image for each vocabulary. The audio sounds much better than those AI sound in Anki app. It had all the good features for language learning such as repetitions. The extra features such as loading YouTube videos’ subtitles are not very useful at the moment since I always encounter loading errors. The web page reading is a bit clumsy to me too. Overall, this app is the best app to learn vocabulary (compared with all kinds of apps I’ve tried so far). I especially love the interface, which is very neat and easy to follow. I hope they can improve the import part (for YouTube and foreign websites) since this is where you can learn the most authentic languages!
